The Future of Downtown Denver 2018 | Bisnow | 11 April 2018 | One Tabor Center, 1200 17th St, Denver, CO 80202, US

Placemaking: In the 2003 book Placemaking: The Art and Practice of Building Communities, Placemaking is defined as "the way in which all human beings transform the places they find themselves into the places where they live."

Denver: Standing tall at 5280 feet with a population of nearly 685,000, the mile-high city may be tiny in comparison to coastal hubs, but its demographics continue to dominate national headlines. In the last decade, Denver ranked as No. 1 city to live, fastest growing cities and most educated cities in the U.S.

Behind the skyscrapers, restaurants and buildings, there are exceptional people who make this city great. Those are Denver's placemakers, the ones who create, entertain and advance an original culture for our urban core. They craft beer, bring us to championships, make us laugh and appear on Bravo TV. They are the reason Denver's real estate community can continue to prosper.
